Wow! Great looking tank! I have not heard of injecting co2 with a fire extinguisher. I really like your tank! Oh and welcome to Aquarium Advice!
Thanks soo much worked hard for it. And I got the fire extinguisher from work as it was outdated then I had to buy a regulator costing £15 and then just a bubble counter and diffuser simply undo one nut plug it all in and that's it! Only problem I've found is a couple of times I've knocked the regulator and pumped a tone of co2 into tank lol surprised it hasn't smashed the diffuser! You wanna see a pic of the set up???
Pictures are always welcome I didn't realize that there were pure co2 fire extinguishers.
Amazing tank! Good job
Lovely set up Joey, seen some nice Discus systems over the years and yours is well up there with the best.
Would a black background look better or worse???
Black would look great, however a darker environment tends to pepper discus' faces. Personally I don't mind the peppering, as mine aren't show discus.
My favourite out of the lot is the really peppered one I just think it looks more natural so I don't mind that and I thought it was dark surroundings and lack of light when they where fry is that not true???
I think they can pepper at any age. I have a 4" Marlboro red who developed the markings after a few months of being in my tank.
